Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

    If his idle fluctuates that much, his ecu needs some adjusting.

    Most guys go with a chipped ecu and run crome, uberdata, etc, as these will allow you to change many things.

    I work for Haltech, and we make a plug in harness to use with our E8 Ecu, it is a full standalone. And hey, it could make your idle sound funny and fluctuate if thats what you really wanted, but if it did, it would mean someting was wrong.

    What mods do you have to make you want an ecu upgrade?

      but how much would your setup cost for someone that didnt work for Haltech?

        An E8 with a patch harness retails for 1525, but we might be dropping the retail back down to 1300 something next month, I am not sure.

        The iq3 dash however, and not sure if you are asking about that or not, but it retails for about 1500, so the combo will set you back about 2800-3000, but is IMO one of the best engine management and data acquisition solutions out there, expecially if you look at what a comparable Motec setup would run you.

        And our upcoming platinum units that will replace the E8 and E11v2, holy crap, they are going to be amazing. From the little I have seen, I am in love. Tuning via VE ftw.

          there are many different ecu's for your car. Do research. But that idling thing sounds like a leak in his intake manifold, not good. it might sound good but it isnt a good sign tell him to check it when he gets out of jail. Its never a good sign if your engine is idling too those extremes. Ecus can also give you a hp pickup but it isnt neccesary if you dont have much done to your ride. If you are talking exhaust and intake just get a honda ecu, you research and you select.
